Oriol Romeu landed in the FC Barcelona like the last option of the sportive direction to substitute to Sergio Busquets in the pivote. It did not go in in the quinielas, but Xavi Hernández bet by his incorporation because it knew the model and came of a positive season in the Girona. It has not fulfilled with the expectations and has gone of more to less: it Began being an indisputable player, but now is by behind players like Sergi Roberto or Fermín López.
The possibility that it abandon the City Condal is increasing considerably. In front of the fault of opportunities and regularity, the footballer formed in The Masia would see in the position to change of airs to a team in which it can add minutes. It is conscious that in the Barça do not see him like the first option for the pivote and that the history will not change of face to the next season.
The Barça looks for a new pivote
According to a recent information of Matteo Moretto, in Relief, is likely that Romeu leave the club when it finish the present season. It is conscious that him ficharon like an option of 'spare', of emergency, and that will not have hollow in the team. Already the sportive direction is in research of a defensive midfield player that can do of '5'. There are several names on the table, like Onana (Everton) or Kimmich (Bayern). The problem is the economic factor.
In the City Condal are conscious that it will be very difficult to achieve a pivote that 'accommodate' to the eternal financial crisis by which crosses the Barça. The past summer, paid 'alone' 3,4 million euros to do with the services of Romeu and, according to the first report, the traspaso of the alternatives that has the club for the position rondan the 60 'kilos'. It seems difficult that can assume montos so high.
Oriol Romeu will look for a new destination
The midfield player of Ulldecona will begin the process to find a new team, that is not little thing. Already in the market of wintry signings was wrapped in rumours on a possible exit and, in fact, arrived to inform that he had asked his traspaso in the final stretch. The Girona was interested in him, but from the Barça closed the doors because the staff was (and is) very short. They were not in conditions to lose more players.
